Marcus Freeman is half Korean, so respect to the Irish for hiring the first Korean head coach in college football. And the next great Irish QB, Tyler Buchner, is Korean too. lets celebrate all people and all diversity.
Man as a huge Notre Dame fan I am really happy with Marcus Freeman/ idk about head coaching experience/ he can take us to that next level/ when you get these young talented players to buy in to what you're teaching you can do something special and I truly believe he is the right guy to take us there ! GO IRISH ☘☘☘☘
What a week lads!!! Its a new era in Notre Dame Football I find it fascinating that the majority of the coaches are staying at ND its usually a mass Exodus and says a lot about ND and Head Coach Marcus Freeman. Lets get to work boys you got at least one game left if not in a best case scenario two games .
Great program you have done again. Its late her in southern Cal. Im doing work from home and i did enjoyed thia entire live. Switching to the one you guys did earlier, today!
just got in a huge argument with my father about notre dame and him saying that notre dame is a garbage program compared to lsu and that’s why kelly left. btw he’s an lsu fan…. and i live in louisiana😂GO IRISH ☘️ BEAT FATTY WIN THE NATTY!!!!
Glad to hear a "Man" be true to his heart. These young coaches have plenty time to earn the million dollar payday. Besides most of us get along with less than $75,000 anyway. Is it that must much of a struggle to get by on $500,000 in South Bend?
I love Tommy Reese as a offensive coordinator because he knows the play book or he can design the playbook, because I liked Tommy Reese as a quarterback and I like his play calls, ND is not a 50 yard pass offense but we can move the ball effectively who can still make plays and that's Marcus Freeman because the players want to play for him..
One of the things BK is good at is controlling what he can control on the field of play. He's put a stop to the music and sound effects being piped in during games if it was causing communication issues on the field as the visiting team. Would like to see that attention to detail by Freeman as a first time head coach. Know the rules.
Also want to say that I am thankful for everything BK did for this football program. He turned the win/loss record around and built a strong program. I wish him well and thank him, but am disappointed that he is not an ND guy, he is only a BK guy and this was a business decision for him. OK that's fine and ND will be fine without him.
Slight diss by Rees? “I think we can win a national championship here”. I wonder if there’s someone who doesn’t think he can....🤔.... 🖕🐍Gooooo Irish ☘️
Kelly found time to meet with LSU admin, go on the Dan Patrick show, etc., but when it came time to properly inform his ND players of his plan to leave, he couldn't be bothered to use any number of digital media to INSTANTLY do so. WSBT radio is mocking BK *derisively* -- and rightfully so for how he's treated ND now and his lying about not having a care about his own legacy. The gloves are off, local media finally admit they were not enamored with BK or his era here. Laughter on WSBT over BK and "align," "alignment" blather.
I hope and believe MF will be a good hire because the players love him and it appears he can recruit well (which is a huge need for us). However, only time and Wins/Losses will tell. People will turn on him quickly if he doesn't keep winning. The program is in place and the staff appear to be in place for his success, hopefully he will not have to many new HC hiccups.
Never in my 65 Years of living and dying with Notre Dame have I ever cared so much about OC or the Strength Coach. The Irish are a family and BK never got that. I think Irish will win a Natty before fatty!
@@dereks7061 You do realize Millions worldwide don't care what you like or dislike. So what team do you root for that has Never Lost a game ever. If you don't understand Notre Dame culture, it's your loss not ours. GO IRISH! And Derek you can Go Away!
And here we are. The season is over and the team is 8-4. Probably will lose our bowl game and be 8-5. With the talent on the team it’s inexcusable. It’s not like it’s a rebuilding year. Freeman and Rees are not good and the program and fans have accepted mediocrity. There was a time, Holtz years and before, where anything less than a one or two loss season was unacceptable. Now we think we had a good year because we are 8-4 and beat Clemson 😴😴😴 Also, the field turf sucks and so do the mustard pants the team has been wearing for 10 years. Who was the bozo that signed off on that? Bring back the gold and the natural grass.
Not a "sexy hire". If I was a "Domer" I would be very angry and disappointed. All that cash and this is best?!!!!! Should appeal to Pope Francis!!!!! The disappointment is very evident in these gentlemens' faces.
I'm trying to think of any possible scenario where a whyte assistant coach w the exact same age and exact same resume as Freeman is even CONSIDERED, for one minute, for the head coaching job. And I can't. I was online and following the situation and I saw what happened. Current and former players, on the one hand (and 100% blk ones) pushed for their co-ethnic to get this prestigious job 100% for rayce reasons. On the other side you had virtue signalling fans pushing the same thing, either for virtue signalling reasons or bc they saw 'the players' and 'alumni' pushing it, didn't understand the motivations behind that, and just thought it was genuine enthusiasm. This is an absolutely disastrous decision by Swarbrick. This man was Luke Fickell's d-coordinator one year ago. Now you choose him over Fickell? He was barely qualified enough to be ND's d-coordinator. Fickell is going to go somewhere, or stay at Cincinnati, and win big and keep winning big. And Freeman is going to what? What does he do, exactly, that he's now the head coach? It wasn't a dominant defensive unit, and definitely not in the games against better offenses. Cincinnati didn't miss a beat without him. He had no recruiting rep at Cincinnati, and thus far has helped w maybe one class worth of good recruiting here. That's someone you keep on staff if possible (as Kelly tried to do), it's not someone you name coach at 35. Bob Diaco was a masterful recruiter, an all time recruiter - he would never in a million years have been considered for a promotion from Charlie's coordinator to head coach. This is virtue signalling gone horribly wrong. And when it flames out dramatically, as it's going to sooner rather than later, all those 'current and former players' are going to suddenly be pretty quiet. Or if anything they'll complain that he's not getting a fair shake from fans and media. And we know why they'll say that is. That's the other fun part of this. We all remember the Willingham situation. He was (100% correctly) fired, and what did the media say? So now ND is in a position where they will be reluctant to fire this guy when he inevitably is a disaster. W Fickell on the market and eager this is just an all time botch by Swarbrick and the administration and Jack should finally be fired for this. He is Stan Bowman. btw, all any opposing coach has to do in a recruiting battle w Freeman for a white recruit is show them and their family a picture of Freeman and HIS family. No white dude from a good enough family to play at ND is seeing that and wanting to be around that.
Fickell was likely staying at UC anyway, he just left the door open slightly -- especially considering the OSU job could open up. Freeman built a great defense that has stymied some decent opponents -- and he's done it quickly.

Been waiting since forever for this as a fan of 30 years
Marcus Freeman is a outstanding recruiter and should do well as the head coach in South Bend
Didn't get to see this live. Bryan, your comment about Meyer's dream job was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!

Hope guys it gets officialized and signed in paper so we enjoy of Freeman's tenure at ND. Wish him the best with the program!. Loved the news!
Finally some amazing new blood at the top , we as fans needed this
Great program you have done again. Its late her in southern Cal. Im doing work from home and i did enjoyed thia entire live. Switching to the one you guys did earlier, today!
When are we going to see an introductory press conference from Freeman? I can't seem to find the video. And they finally made it official today.
Get the O line back to Notre Dame Standing.
Definitely brother! Get a new o-line, special team, and wr coach
Soooo what do we do to keep Mr. Hamilton to stay for another year?
Blue & Gold Illustrated has NOTHING on you guys. Your channel is epic!

I wish the LSU fans well. I was watching in '81 when the Tigers came to SB for Faust's 1st game as ND coach. They are both great programs.
Glad to hear a "Man" be true to his heart. These young coaches have plenty time to earn the million dollar payday. Besides most of us get along with less than $75,000 anyway. Is it that must much of a struggle to get by on $500,000 in South Bend?
BYU vs Notre Dame. Looking forward to it
All I want for Christmas is a fire breathing o line Coach. Amen

We want USC, and I can't wait to see how ND handles that with the Freeman defense.. Go Irish ☘️

Any word on Brian Hartline? Hearing Freeman is trying to poach him from OSU.
I think that I heard the other day that Day might be heading to the NFL. Would that make getting Alford back easier?
CJ Hicks AND Sneed in the same class would be sick!!
How do I do a super chat?

I don’t think ND lost Kelly! I think Kelly lost the team months ago!
Didn’t kelly say on Dan Patrick that he wouldn’t try and poach the ND staff lol?
Jonny BK offered Freeman, 3 Million to come with him. And talked to Tommy about leaving. The OC. This is a fact.
Apparently Quinn is joining BK (no surprise), but Rees and others are staying (Rees 100% certain).
Wait I feel happy and hopefully.... but I’m a Notre Dame fan. This is a strange feeling, I don’t like it lol
MR. Freeman's Salary, should be. 2.77 Million dollars
Brian doesn't care about winning championships. He only cares about money.
Feels like a Bob Davie hire to me, but I hope I'm wrong....... but it's not often.
You've got to be kidding me.
@@brennanmccarthy7642 ... A one year DC with no coaching experience, but a lot of talk about potential. I'm describing both at the same time, aren't I
LONERS! End all be all, doe's not sound like football to me.
Way to go ND and Swarbick. Waking up the Echoes of Bob Davie and Charlie Weiss. You will regret this decision.
Stop giving Kelly the props, ND choose their Coach and that's that, and stop being negative..
Goodbye Kelly

Love the news of Freeman and Rees, but man Driskell is painful to listen to lol

Wow Marcus freeman ..n SC got Riley..ND bout 2 start getting smacked around by them trojans AGAIN
Nice one. We will be dominating in the trenches.
